Quiller Press, 1985, 1st. The story of Harry Chandler is a true 'rags to riches' tale. His 50 years in the travel trade cover the growth of the massive package holiday industry. There is the building up of a multi-million pound business, not from London or a chain of offices all over the country, but from a single office at Upminster, in Essex - a trade in package holidays abroad that began when a young Harry and his best friend embarked on a cycle tour of Germany in 1934. But his life has not always been bound up with the travel business, he had a very interesting war, trapped in Switzerland, being a Policeman and then Military Intelligence to serve in the Middle and Far East.. Illustrated with Mono Photos . Hardback with dust wrapper, Fine/Fine.
